Only a day after the Bad Beat Jackpot surpassed the $800,000 mark it had its closest call yet.
Im sure that its well known that you have to have quad 7’s or better busted to have the jackpot pay out, so when a player had quad 6’s busted by a straight flush, the tension must have been at a definitive high.
Taking place on the infamous Bad Beat La Grand Place table at the $.50/$1 stakes, it started with Shoe12 being dealt pocket sixes. The action starts with a fold, a call from Clintasaurus, a raise by Shoe12and two callers. The flop falls 10♦ 4♠ and 6♠. Destroyerhere leads the betting with top pair – 10♣ and A♥ in his hand. Clintasaurus raises on a straight flush draw and and Shoe12 with a set of sixes makes the call followed by destroyerhere.
The turn – 5♠.
Top pair for destroyer, a straight flush for Clintasaurus and trips for Shoe12.
Destroyer leads of with a check, Clintasaurus slowplays and continues the check, to Shoe12 who bets twice the blind. Destroyer folds as Clintasaurus makes the call. The River comes – 6♣
Clintasaurus checks, followed by a bet by Shoe12, a raise by Clintasaurus, two more re-raises take place before Shoe12 pushes all in. Clintasaurus makes the call to show 8♠7♠ as shoe turns quad sixes.
Unlucky Shoe12, and well played Clintasaurus. The Bad Beat marches on!
